From 56139fc5bd6e740706993ab3ad0d0aeff69a8479 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: stephen hemminger Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2011 07:47:08 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] bridge: notifier called with the wrong device If a new device is added to a bridge, the ethernet address of the bridge network device may change. When the address changes, the appropriate callback is called, but with the wrong device argument. The address of the bridge device (ie br0) changes not the address of the device being passed to add_if (ie eth0). Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.
